By its overall health score, ZIP 32831, one of several in Orlando, Florida lands in the top 19% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,008th) and the top 24% of Florida (234th).
Strengths and concerns sit side by side across the measures here: poverty lies at the national minimum, and home broadband subscription resides at the national maximum. Modeled hearing disability lands in the bottom 2.1% nationally, and mobility disability registers in the bottom 2.3% nationally. On the other hand, modeled humid heat sits in the top 1.5% nationally, modeled binge drinking rests in the top 2.0% nationally, and PFOS in drinking water is at the national maximum. Modeled short sleep stands in the top 2.8% nationally, modeled colon screening settles in the bottom 3.9% nationally, and housing-cost burden lies in the top 2.4% nationally.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, slow internet speeds runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, PFOS in drinking water is a common one of the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 32828, just across the boundary.

How these were chosen: only ZIPs with a published Score appear — a nearby ZIP with too little data to score won’t. Nearby means closest by distance between ZIP boundaries, which can cross state lines. A similar health profile is a close match across the nine Score domains, not similar demographics. Distances are measured between ZIP boundaries — ZIPs that touch share a border. How distance is measured

About the ± — it’s this estimate’s give-or-take (statisticians call it the standard error). The true life expectancy for this ZIP most likely falls within 1.90 years of 78.0, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.

How these lists were built: they draw only from ZIPs that have a published Score, so ZIPs with too little data to score are not listed. Distance-based lists use distance between ZIP boundaries with no state filter, so an out-of-state ZIP can appear. Statistically similar means a close match across the nine Score domains, not a demographic match: the measure is the cosine similarity between two ZIPs’ domain scores, taken over the domains both ZIPs have data for and only where that overlap covers at least six of the nine — and where no ZIP clears that minimum-overlap floor, that list is left out rather than filled with a weak match.
